Detailed Description

DisplacementControl is a subclass of StaticIntegrator, it is used to when performing a static analysis on the FE\_Model using the displacement control method. In the displacement control method the displacement at a specified degree-of-freedom Uc is specified for each iteration. The following constraint equation is added to equation~\ref{staticFormTaylor} of the StaticIntegrator class:

where depends on , the displacement increment at the previous time step, , the number of iterations required to achieve convergence in the previos load step, and , the desired number of iteraions. is bounded by and . \

SOME THEORY.\

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DisplacementControl::DisplacementControl ( int node,
int dof,
double increment,
Domain * theDomain,
int numIncrStep,
double minIncrement,
double maxIncrement )
 

The integer INTEGRATOR\_TAGS\_DisplacementControl (defined in classTags.h\form#24) is passed to the StaticIntegrator classes constructor. is the load factor used in the first step. The arguments , , and are used in the determination of the increment in the load factor at each step.

Member Function Documentation

void DisplacementControl::Print ( ostream & s,
int flag = 0 ) [virtual]
 

Method provided for Output.

Reimplemented from Integrator.

Definition at line 320 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.

int DisplacementControl::domainChanged ( void ) [virtual]
 

Is called by the Analysis object. Refer to the Analysis classes to see when it is invoked. To return if successful, a negative number if not. This base class returns .

Reimplemented from Integrator.

Definition at line 199 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.

int DisplacementControl::newStep ( void ) [virtual]
 

WHAT DO I DO?

Reimplemented from StaticIntegrator.

Definition at line 90 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.

int DisplacementControl::recvSelf ( int commitTag,
Channel & theChannel,
FEM_ObjectBroker & theBroker ) [virtual]
 

This is a pure virtual method, one must be written for each instantiable subclass of MovableObject. Each object has to receive the data needed to be able to recreate itself in the new process after it has been sent through {theChannel}. If the object is an aggregation containing other objects, new objects of the correct type can be constructed using {theBroker}. To return if successful or a if not.

Reimplemented from MovableObject.

Definition at line 312 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.

int DisplacementControl::sendSelf ( int commitTag,
Channel & theChannel ) [virtual]
 

This is a pure virtual method, one must be written for each instantiable subclass of MovableObject. Each object has to send the data needed to be able to reproduce that object in a remote process. The object uses the methods provided by {theChannel} object to send the data to another channel at the remote actor, the address of the channel is set before this method is called. An object of similar type at the remote actor is invoked with a {receiveSelf()} to receive the data. Returns if successful (successful in that the data got to the channel), or a if no data was sent.

Reimplemented from MovableObject.

Definition at line 303 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.

int DisplacementControl::update ( const Vector & deltaU ) [virtual]
 

WHAT DO I DO?

Reimplemented from IncrementalIntegrator.

Definition at line 150 of file DisplacementControl.cpp.
